There is never going to be a beta or a release. Dave said that he wanted to announce beta but he said that some head guy wasn't in town. Well, that was almost a week ago, whats your excuse now?

What about the massivly multiplayer strategy game, Sovereignty, It was supposed to be made at around the same time planetside was. It doesn't exsist anymore, and it was owned by sony online.

Gyddyn: "Be patient, it will come soon."

Thats what the devs have been saying for many weeks...

They have given a date. "Soon" and it has been "Soon" for much longer than what "Soon" really means.

No one has faith in the release date. If it comes out after Star Wars Galaxies then I will not buy it. I will be playing star wars galaxies. I know many many other people that feel the same way as me. The community will get a lot smaller if it comes out after star wars galaxies. And it will keep shrinking until it dissapears... vaporware.







Well.. not really, as SJ will make QUITE Clear... Hamma... can we start an official "We Love SJ" Petition and collection to send him flowers? He needs a hug dealing with the Sewage on the Official Forums

All right. We let a lot of these "When is Beta?" posts exist on the forums even though they're obviously duplicate topics that have been beaten to death...but we draw the line when the title of the topic is a direct attack on the company.
PlanetSide is not vaporware. Jeez. We release screenshots constantly, keep giving you info on details, and will be letting folks into test soon enough. We've even had squads of press folks playing in the game and we will have more of them next week. Don't you think they would have squawked already if they thought it was vaporware?

Mellooooooow. It's a *game* folks. It's *our* collective arses riding on whether the game is successful or not...not yours. Let us do our jobs and make this happen.

The wait WILL be worthwhile.

Topic locked.

I'm not normally prone to violence, but I really want to hurt this person! What an idiot! Probably an everquest player...

I'd just as soon the original poster play SWG instead of PSide anyway. One bit to infer from that is that the beta won't be next week or there would have been no point to say that the press would be playing it next week.

It's kinda weird how he keeps talking about how ps is vaporware and how hes gonna play SWG, but hasn't SWG been pushed back far more times RECENTLY than PS? I mean, overall, since the beginning, PS may have been pushed back more, but SWG just keeps rolling back. I honestly haven't seen the stop of pushback dates stop yet.

Sounds like, to me, that this kid isn't really serious. He's just trying to piss people off. Dave shoulda simply gotten a hold of the kid, told him that he is wrong and banned him from the site.

Anyone read about all the features they have removed from SWG? Was posted on some major news sites today.

As I understand it they were features that people were really psyched about.

SWG was gonan be an RPG about the GAlactic Civil War I.E. that wa sits original name. I posted there HEAVILY under the name Billard.

Well, see there were two camps really, the PvP and the PvE. Guess who the Devs went with? The PvE crowd. Why? Cause the Lead Dev for SWG was on the UO team and feared that mess SOOO much, thta SWG:Galatic Civil War went from BADASS PvP in the SW Universe, with Imperials, Rebels and Hutts all vieing for control, into a a Nuetered CAreBear land with some MEANINGLESS fooking PvP areas that did nothing.. Hell they change dthe name to SWG: An Empire Divided... Is it just me.. or does that sound like a domestic dispute rather than a Civil war? A Good Vs. Evil epic adventour?

I am sorry to slam them so hard, but I am STILL bitter over that whole freaking fiasco... It was.. to say the least.. a serious let down when they did that... I still havent forgiven them.

I gotta go look up the new changes so I can laugh at the SWG Fanboys... the ones that no matter how altered the game became, still thought it was gonna be all that..

Sorry, but VERY Bitter is this player, very bitter...

Your main cannot become a Jedi.. but you get a free Force Sensitive slot for a new character...

Jedi are perma Death characters...

Using my elvish powers I looked into the future and I know exactly when beta will be here. Beta CDs will be sent out February 14th and the names will be anounced via email. CDs will arive February 17th-18th, closed Beta will last 4 weeks, March 17th open Beta will start. The final touches will be finished the week of March 17th-21st, game released March 24th or 25th. All those who disagree can go to hell. I am a night elf named Firelin, I can see the future, do not disagree with me or else you will change the future.
